New suit alleges rigged bingo machines at VictoryLand

(Press-Register/Kate Mercer)A new suit targets VictoryLand owner Milton McGregor, shown in a file photo, saying he has defrauded customers by rigging bingo machines. A lawsuit has been filed alleging that Milton McGregor, owner of VictoryLand, and companies that supply his electronic bingo machines have rigged the machines to cheat customers.

The suit claims the machines have been set up to return billions of dollars to McGregor and the machine owners at the expense of customers and charities that are supposed to receive a cut of the money that goes through VictoryLand.

It seeks at least $75,000 in damages for each of the more than 850 customers named as plaintiffs.
